Abstract
The red yeast Phaffia rhodozyma, which contains astaxanthin(3, 3'-dihydroxy-$eta$, $eta$-carotene-4, 4'-dione) as its primary carotenoid, was tested as a dietary pigment source for egg yolks of laying hens. When the yeast was fed to laying hens at several concentrations, the intensity of redness in egg yolks was dependent on the yeast concentration in the feed and the deposition period. Addition of P rhodozyma in feed did not cause any visible adverse effect on laying hens.
Key Words: egg yolk, pigmentation, Phaffia rhodozyma, astaxanthin, carotenoid
